All-American League's Big Loyal Demonstration ESTABLISHED 1879 LEADING RACE JOURNAL THE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE MAIN 1594 VOLUME 30 All-American League Holds Patriotic Meeting (H. Douglas Greer) Actuated by intelligent motives for loyalty and i mpassioned clues for patriotism, the two branches of the All-American League held a joint session in the Auditorium of the Violet Street Playground on last Saturday evening, Oct. 6th, in compliance with the request of the Governor of our State, the Hon. William D. Stephens, urging that all schools, churches, labor unions, fraternal orders and leagues engage in some sort of patriotic exercises for the purpose of engendering true spirits of patriotism and renewing our pledges of loyalty and devotion to the State and National Governments in this dark hour. oGovernor Stephens, in addressing his proclamation to the citizens of California, said, "I especially lay upon every presiding officer of every school, church, labor union, fraternal order or other organizations in the State the duty of preparing and conducting such a service, at the meeting of his organization held during the week from Sept. 30 to Oct. 1st, to the end that all the people of California may solemnly unite in an expression of their loyalty to our Government in this day of preparations for battle." It is generally known that the All-American League is a patriotic organization, composed of citizens whose loyalty in any national crisis is absolutely unquestioned, and who have always served and observed the best interest of the nation, and we find them today, as they have been known in the past, supporting and sustaining the institutions of our Government with the consciences' belief that they are worthy and deserving of this support. The program presented by the League on this occasion was instructive and inspiring. In the absence of the State Chapain, Rev E. E. Lighter, Prof. Chaslexander very beittingly offered the invitation, that success might attend our righteous cause and justify our entrance into this world's war. Mr J. C. Colly, President of Branch No. 1, All-American League, clearly defined the position that we bear to the nation, and waving "Old Glory" intertested every lover of liberty and air play to come out with our organization in Freedom's name "tor to live, for her to die." The objects and purpose of the League were presented by Mr J. B. Bass, editor of the California Eagle. Douglas Frother addressed the gathering on the subject of "The Republic of Manhood" in which he declared that God made the Heaven and the Earth. He also made man in his own image and keenness, and assumes no responsibility for color or nativity, nor does He offer any apology for the different faces. Man's birthright is humanity and citizenship. Those inherent rights are not to be denied by any profession, institution or classification. We are men before we are members of any race or class-incitation and as such are privileged to live and enjoy the messings of this earth as was the design of Him who created it. Mr. William E. Easton, whose uninchained belief in the principles of Democracy has enabled him to ambulate the spirit of Americanism to the saturation point, delivered a masterful address on the "Duty of the Hour," r. Easton called into existence the story of the hero of the American evolution, Crispus Attuck, who shed first Christian blood on Boston common in defense of American liberty. Attesting further to the valor and savery of the "Black Phalanx," Mr. aston summoned the heroes of Fortagner and Sumpter. San Juan Hill and Carrizal that he might parade his love and sacrifice to the nation Attorney Hugh E. Macbeth, returning from a recent visit to Mexico, give an illuminating account of his up and declares that native and foreign elements of citizenship must sit in this struggle to help "make world safe for Democracy." Names because the love of home and country is an emotion and instinct, reigners because of the fact that America secures for them happiness and affords them a protection which did not enjoy in the country of air birth. Resolutions were adopted, copies which were forwarded to the Present of the United States, Hon.oodrow Wilson, Gov. Wim D.ophens, Mayor Woodman and recel placed on the minutes of both anches of the All-American League. The following telegram was reved from the Governor of the State California: Sacramento, Cal., Oct. 6, 1917. E. Easton, Custodian, State Offices, Union League Bldg. Los Angeles, Cal. Los Angeles, Cal. Please convey my greetings to the eting of the All-American League fight. I have a deep interest in all livities calculated to awaken the riotic spirit which is so essential prosecution of the war. Best wish for a successful rally. (SIGNED) WILLIAM D. STEPHENS. Governor.

"FROM THE ACORN TO THE OAK" By Mrs. Marie Jeter, a recent graduate of Biggers' Business College "Tiny seeds make many a harvest, Drops of rain compose the shower, Seconds make the ying minutes. And the minutes make the hour." And the minutes make the hour. The acorn, though very small, becomes n ages the giant oak, and from the oak many useful articles needed in the comforts and utilities of life become the instrumentalities of man's handwork. The acorn is not always planted by the careful hand with the expectation of growing the sturdy oak, it is more or less scattered by the wind; but it matter not how it is planted. Its presence in the soil creates a vortex of motion and change; the seed, as it germinates and grows, draws the particles of soil into its composition and structure imparts to them a high nature changes the sand, and makes it a co-operative concern in its vital constituency, combines the elements of the dew and sunshine, brings all the power and elements of nature into the art of progressiveness, where growth and production are constant symbols and signs of how great things come from little things. Through these unseen degrees the acorn becomes the giant oak. The question comes to us, "What is the usefulness of the oak?" From the giant old oak that springs from the acorn, we get valuable lumber for ```markdown ``` California Eagle San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, OCTOBER 13, 1917 building our beautiful homes, and hitting them up with beautiful furniture. The significance of it all is but to show that all great and large things have a small beginning. Even though developments may be to the greatest height and breadth, and possess the greatest strength, grandeur, and greatness. The smallest seed sewn in a fertile spot, becomes the source of many a harvest. Each drop of rain coming to its own compose the shower. Moving on to its mysterious level, forms the great ocean by which the commerce of the great nations are carried on and for the happiness of mankind. The educational world finds similar advancements and developments from childhood to manhood. We are learning every day, each word, each sentence, and each lesson forms a part of our educational constitency, until we have achieved such scholastic attainments that we are declared graduates to the capability of life's greatest work. Following the history of Biggers' Business College, an institution from which so many have hailed, we are inspired through its remarkable epoches to feel that we as satellites around this haven of intellect, may shine out, too, and cast a ray of light in the struggling pathway of life to those who are following in the beaten path of fame, and we will view with joy and inspiration the growth from the acorn to the oak. BROTHER LUKE AT THE BAT To the Editor of the Eagle:— A few questions to Mr. Hoke Smith of Georgia, Senator Tillman, Vardaman of Mississippi and Blease of South Carolina—and all of the fire eating Southern representatives. These questions apply to them and them only. The Constitution of the United States covers all of the States. If this be true, why is it and how is it that the National Government does not interfere when part of its subjects south of the Mason Dixon line are mistreated and slaughtered in so many ways? The Negro has played his part in every part of the government. Now then, the crisis is at hand, and the National Government Ave. First A. M. E. Church, where will preach Sunday morning at 11 Bartlett, organist, will render at 7:30 concert of this Conference Year, with ple besides distinguished invited arram. At 6:30 o'clock the public in- Endeavor officers will take place. come to enjoy this Sabbath Day in stand shoulder to shoulder against our common enemy, and yet in the crisis, this murder and blood-spilling does not cease. The Negro has won every war for America, but one, and the so-called white men and women of America boast about the bravery and of the fighting quality of the Negro soldiers, and yet the Southern Legislatures do not say a word, or in other words, try to stop this blood-shed. It is said that America's National Government, our Government is based upon the Bible. If that be true, why is it and how is it that the white preachers of the south more especially, and some of the Negro preachers thrown in for good measure, won't raise one finger against this gigantic slaughter, yet they say that our salvation rests in the Bible. If white brethren's religion is not strong enough to stop the bloodshed of the Negro race and the Jim Crowism throughout the land, I don't want that kind of religion. From the actions of the so-called Christians of our land, it means a separate heaven for blacks and whites and a separate hell for blacks and whites. I consider that religion is to help the widow, educate the orphan and visit the sick and to do unto others as we would have them do unto us. The spirit throughout this land among the white people is to eliminate or in other words exterminate, the Negroes, in my view. That was shown when ex-President Roosevelt on one of his tours through the south said to the white people of the south: "Would you exterminate or do away with a thing that keeps you in existence?" What he meant by that was—the Negro has always been a chattel slave for the white man of the south and now a wage slave for the white man. The white man has tried all nations to supplant the Negro in the south, but he has failed every time. I have noticed that the great evangelist known as Billy Sunday has never said one word to his southern white brother, and all who prey upon the Negro as a vulture upon the carcass. "Every since ex-President Hayes in 1876, and Tilton's troubles, when President Hayes withdrew the soldiers from the south, the preachers of my race and the white preachers of the south haven't said one word. I hope while the Negro soldiers are marching toward France, and making history for America, that the Negro will be found in a place in that history, so our children will know what their forefathers did in the 1917 of 18 war of the world. Every Negro man, woman and child in America is watching the trial of the 24th Infantry of the Houston riot. Very respectfully yours. L. C. LUKE. REPORT PROVES TO BE / HUGH CANARD Thursday evening excitement ran to its highest pitch upon receipt of the news that Attorney Clarence A. Jones had ben waaylaid and murdered in the vicinity of his home on W. 45th St. but many credence was given the report on account of the fact that there had ben some opposition to Jones moving into his own house by some of the red necks who live in that section. But on investigation by his friends, Jones was found embraced in the arms of Morpheus, oblivious of the red necks, and thus was shattered again the prolific tongue of The Canard Somebody (susposed to be Red Necks of this neighborhood), telephoned the police department that C. A. Jones had ben wailied and murdered, as the same time they called Roberts the undertaker to send out the dead wogan for Jones' body. The police sent to the undertaker also, but the met Jones who drownsly rubbed his eyes but was much alive, in the meantime this story had spread like wildfire and excitement prevailed a way incidents leading up to this affair. Atty. Jones informs us that immediately after moving in his home at 234 West 45th St., has office attendant. M. Thomas received daily telephone calls threatening personal violence and destruction of his home if he did not immediately move out. The attorney paid little attention to the threats, but carried his winchester to the hardware store in the neighborhood to get a supply of cartridges in accordance with his casual custom of having a supply of ammunition at the house. At no time have the neighbors approached him personally, but a series of meetings have been held in the neighborhood, handbills announcing each meeting have been scattered broadcast in the neighborhood with the caption, "Undesirables must go." A menace to our homes. The invasion of those who bring social disaster and financial ruin must be stopped. CURRENT TOPICS IN AND OUT OF TOWN An investigation by the criminal complaints committee of the County Grand Jury, this week, suggested that police officers were making profit on drug selling in the Colored section of the city. Mr. G. L. Hays of Los Angeles on Oct. 10. was appointed as a regular policeman to serve on the force in Los Angeles. Mr. Hays is a splendid young man and will, no doubt, do赦it to himself and the department.

Pastor Holt having just returned from the National Baptist Convention which convened at Muskogee, Okla., and visit to other parts of the east, came to his pulpit filled with good things. An appreciative audience listened to a brief sermon, following an old-time Covenant meeting at eleven. Arrangements having been made to hear Dr. Holt's report of the work of the Convention. St. Paul Church was filled to overflowing at 3:00 p.m. The absence of associate pastors was noticed, but members from almost every church in the city sat for one hour listening to this orator, scholar and pupitor draw upon the canvas of every mind a vivid picture of this great convention in session; showing and following the program of the convention, and explaining in minute detail from moment Pres. Morras let fall the historic sermon, and sand persons to order, until the departing traits carried the last messenger out of the yard limits of Muskogee. Not only did he tell of the work of the convention, but produced speeches of more than a dozen orators, including Hon. R. L. Williams, Governor of Oklahoma and Dr. C. T. Walker, the world's greatest preacher. All who heard Dr. Holt was both amazed and bewitched by his flow of language and oratorical flights which brought the audience to its feet amid applause. "Dr. Holt will speak at Mt. Zion Baptist Church, Sunday, Oct. 14 at three p. m., at Pasadena at a later date, by invitation. Every Sunday is a big day at St. Paul, come over and visit.

Laws (Mrs. Austin's daughter) of San Diego, and Mr. Ragsdale, Mrs. Austin's son. The party was royally entertained by Mr. Ragsdale, along the line of his profession. MARRIED. Mr. Clifton Cloyd and Miss Christine E. McCarty, a popular couple in our young society, were married Monday evening at 7.30 p. m., by Rev. J. Logan Craw, at the parsonage, 1466 Griffith avenue. Miss Bella Boswell and Mr. P. J. McCarty were witnesses to the ceremony. The happy pair returned to their apartments at 1463 W. 35th street, where they are now at home to all friends. Hill Temple Entertains The "Sisters of the Mysterious Ten" of Los Angeles are truly a band of women who believe in doing things. Hill Temple No. 1 of this organization has recently taken the lead in the social whirl of the season. Tuesday evening the home of Mrs. Tena Little of Amey street was thrown open to the members of Hill Temple for the purpose of entertaining their delegates and state officers who attended the U. B. of F. and S. M. T. Grand Lodge in San Diego with a reception. The guests of honor were the State Grand Princess, Mrs. Sarah P. Shores; State Mother Matron, Mrs. Maggie Jennings; Mesdames S. A. Wright, Mary Taylor, Marie L. Gottschaff, Charlotte Harris and Minnie Harris. Just after the arrival of the guests of honor a large bouquet of "Prince Dona" roses were received by Mrs. Little, who announced to the ladies that the flowers were the compliments of Mrs. Margaret Head to them. About 200 guests honored the delegates with their presence during the evening. The ladies who received the guests were Mesdames Minnie Davis; Janie Williams, Wm. Motley, Emma Smith, Minnie Waller and Robert Beverly. In the dining room were Mesdames Emma Duncan and Carrie Graves, Magdalene Medlock, Celia Francis, Ella Baber, George Stephens and Miss Jaunita Baker; at the punchbowl, Miss Jaunita Jones and Miss Ethel Stropher. Mrs. Rosa Lambert and Miss M. Busby furnished the music for the occasion. Mrs. C. M. Mitchell, recently from Butte, Montana, was also numbered among the honored guests. Rev. A. P. Ramsey and Family Receive Loving Recognition. The members and many friends of the Macedonia Church of Watts gave a grand surprise to their pastor, Rev. A. P. Ramsey, on Friday evening, Oct. 5, 1917. On their arrival there was heard an outburst of a sweet, melodious anthem, "Count your blessings; count them one by one," and on entering took full possession before the occupants could be free from the much pleasing "alarm." A program was rendered. This 'shower was given under the direction of the deaconess' board. The participants were: Mrs. W. H. Clanswell Mrs. M. A. Chensult Mrs. J. L. Skinner Mrs. M. E. Woods Mrs. L. Copney Mrs. Gus Smith Mrs. M. Perry Mrs. M. Smith Mrs. E. Allen Mrs. F. Watson Mrs. L. E. Dennis Mrs. C. A. Jarrett Mrs. M. Coleman Mrs. G. Kane Miss Blanche Cridle Miss Elizabeth Copney Mr. Mark Smith Mr. L. E. Dennis Mr. S. A. Smith. Watts, Cal., Oct. 5, 1917. Rev. A. P. Ramsev and Family: We, the members and friends of the Macedonia Baptist Church of Watts, present to you these articles as a token of love:— First, because we love you. Second, because we believe that you ove us. Third, because we feel that this will help you. Fourth, because we believe you will appreciate it. Fifth, because we know that you are worthy of anything that can be given in this way. In the Name of the Lord we expect to do more in the future, in the way of lending a helping hand, than we have done in the past. May the blessings of the Master rest upon you and your family; and we pray that you will be successful in all your undertakings in life. Miss Cornelia Leggett of 751 Ceres avenue gave a seven course "balloon" uncheon last Saturday afternoon in honor of Miss Perle A. Bratton. The home was prettily decorated in asparagus, ferns and carnations; red dahlias and carnations marked the center piece, with a cluster of balloons floating over the table. Hand-painted place cards, the art of Miss Leggett, marked the places of the guests. Among those present were Misses Perle and Nadine Bratton, Dorothy Vena, Iva Washington, Gladys Owens, Louise Wilson, Anita Thompson, Juanita Patton, Josephine Brown, Ruth Sykes, Yolande and Naida McCullough; Hollis Asbury and Mrs. Angelita Nelson. The rest of the afternoon was spent in music and impezonations. TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH. 12th and Hemlock Sts. REV. J. D. GORDON. Pastor. Two edifying services were thoroughly enjoyed by two appreciative congregations last Sabbath On account of first Sunday, the pastor gave over to the devotional service. There were many inspiring testimonies rendered by those who participated. All who were present felt the existing power of the Holy Spirit. The service was enjoyed by the splendid congregation. The evening service was opened by the splendid Hoyanian choir, who sang a number of glorious hymns in honor of our Blessed Savior. The pastor preached at sermon in commemoration of the Lord's Supper, "The Crucifixion of Christ." After the sermon the pastor administered the Lord's Supper in a most holy oriental style. The public is always welcome to the services of this church. Its doors stand open for those who wish to worship God in spirit and in truth. New Hope Baptist Church 1623 Paloma Street. REV. A. LIVELY, PASTOR. All services at this church were well attended last Sunday and all present were greatly blessed. The pastor, Rev. Lively, preached on the subject, "Thy will be done," which was immensely enjoyed by all. This being the first Sunday, the communion was administered to a large number of members. There were three accessions to membership at the evening service. We all rejoice to note the continued growth in interest and attendance of the Sunday school and the Y. P. U. All are welcome at this church. Bethel Church of Christ (Holiness.) ELDER W.M. A. WASHINGTON, Pastor The pastor preached a soul stirring sermon Sunday evening. His text was from St. John 19-6. Every one should come and hear this wonderful man of God. Elder Washington has just returned from the Holiness Convention in Jackson, Miss., and it can be truly said of him as of Paul, he has been to Jerusalem and returned renewed with the Spirit.

The colored patriot after all, it seems, will not be denied, as due preparation is now being made for his mobilization. You cannot discount a man who is doing the things worth while His acts and deeds speak for themselves The Jim Crow Negro is still walking his beat and it is necessary to keep not only your eyes open but your cars as well When you meet a man who brays of the influence he is making, it's a safe bet that he has no influence and that his wife is making the living. The Baptist Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society are to be commended for their efforts to establish an orphan's home. As we are told, it is a very long felt need THE PEOPLE'S FORUM We are running in this issue an article for L. C. Luke without any apology for so doing. This paper is the people's Forum, coming to these portals you may always be heard. Mr. Luke is an ex-slave, he has not had the chance that many have had, but with all that he always has his cars to the grass roots and listens to the sound that comes from the people and in his own way, from what he gleans, heralds it to the public for their own deletion. The Welfare Committee of the Council may rest assured that the colored citizens of this city have not the least idea of sending anybody before them asking for a Jim Crow fire department. All that is asked is that the colored citizens who take the civil service examination be given the same treatment and the same consideration as any other citizen. Their ambition is to succeed on merit and not on color; give them a square deal, that's all. SENATOR LYON WOUNDED No part of the constituency of Senator Henry Lyons is more distressed at the unfortunate occurrence of the tragedy and attempted killing of the Senator than his colored constituents, and they truly hope that he will speedily recover and that no cloud will rest on his good name on account of the unbalanced reason of an irresponsible woman who has been disappointed in some iridescent dream of love. SUPERVISOR NORTON FOUND GUILTY The trial of Supervisor Norton in the Superior Court this week resulted in a verdict of guilty by a jury of his peers and thus, for the time being, at least, ends the political career of one of the most spectacular officials this county has ever had. He has at all times been a fighter for the things which he thought were right, but through the maze of financial routes, it seems without intent of wrong doing he has unconsciously overstepped the law, and hence this trial. An old axiom, "ignorance of the law excuses nobody," held good and the penalty is the forfeiture of his office. ALONG BUSINESS LINES In our last issue we launched our drive in which we hope to awaken the people to the fact that they must realize the importance of making openings for themselves. When they do this the problems which confront us will vanish like the snow from the rays of the noonday sun, and the various business concerns will grow and flourish like the green bay tree. It is self-evident that we must first establish a base; in other words we must produce something and we now have that opportunity, and why not accept it. In our article of last week we pointed out the fact based on a reasonable hypothesis, as to how we could rear in this section a great candy factory. By concentrating our efforts along that particular line, we also pointed out the possibility of developing our great mining concerns and take from the bowels of the earth its teeming millions. When we have qualified along these lines we have done the things worth while and we shall then be in a position to quality along real business lines. We cannot sit down and wait for these things to come to pass; we must make them come to pass. And to do so we sometimes need to make sacrifices, which, in fact, are but temporary at that, as the returns will be ten-fold. So it is well to investigate and if found worth while, do your bit for its success. We have an abiding faith in the ultimate success of our local mining opportunities and believe that this same success means much for the future of the race in this country, and to develop the same these companies need the support of the people whom they desire to help, so in coming to their relief we help in more than one way. We provide for ourselves and we boost the race; every line of business effort will be the beneficiary thereof. THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE FOR RENT 12 of the most beautiful flats in the city of Los Angeles.

BEATRICE ANDERSON. 1135 Monroe St. A special to the Christian Science Monitor, New York, from its Eastern Bureau, says: "In this world war Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany and President Wilson of the United States of America have a similar opportunity and responsibility, the former to grant democracy to all the people of his realm, and thereby pave the way for peace negotiation; the latter to grant democracy to 15,000,000 loyal citizens, denied in the republic over which he presides, and thereby gain additional strength to secure peace by success in arms," says a statement issued by the National Equal Rights League and called an "Address to the Country." The league, at its meeting here voted to send seven delegates to the Colored Liberty Congress at Washington, D. C., in December, and to employ a legislative agent at Congress to watch hostile legislation. The Rev. Byron Gunner of Hillburn, N. Y., was re-elected president; Wm. Monroe Trotter of Massachusetts, secretary, and Thomas Walker of Washington, D. C., treasurer. "Born on American soil, our ancestors here for centuries, we, like the rest of you are Americans, and speak as true Americans," continues the address to the country. "Having watered the American soil with our tears, enriched it with our blood, defended it in every war, never disloyal or untrue to its best interests, manifesting new common interest with all true Americans in its welfare, honor and glory, we—in our hour of extremity—appeal to your conscience, sense of justice and fair play, an demand that the many outrages and indignities cease and our race be accorded rights and privileges accorded other Americans. "Despite progress we are still surrounded by an adverse sentiment which makes our lives a living hell. We are shut out by trades unions and refused work. We are rejected in business, in professional services, and even by the Government as clerks, solely because of color. The Senate of the United States has gone, so far as to have a Jim Crow corner in the gallery. Neither the churches of Christ nor the courts of law have overcome the color line. In our Southland it has long been the custom, when a colored man is accused of a crime, to set aside the usual processes of law and turn him over to the mob to be stabbed, hanged, shot or burned at the stake-outrages that would not be permitted in any other courty on the globe. "The most discouraging feature is that the pulpit is usually silent and the press silent, if not siding with the mob. "The inhuman outrages have been winked at by those in authority until they are no longer confined to the South, but are spreading throughout the entire country and casting a blot upon American civilization that cannot be effaced. "At a time like this, when our country is in war to uphold democracy and to prove to the world that our Government is the best on earth, and as President Wilson we should 'establish in this country justice with heart in it and sympathy in it,' it behooves the American people to make these outrages against humanity impossible: Not only should the world be made safe for democracy,' but 'democracy should be made safe for the world.' "We denounce the East St. Louis horror as the most awful outrage that ever happened in the civilized world. We call upon the sentiment of the country to help us. We demand that the Federal Department of Justice investigate this outrage and prosecute the guilty parties to the full extent of the law." Rev. and, Mrs. G, P, Isaacs have removed from Pasadena to their Monrovia home. THE LEGENDARY LEGENDARY Personal---PROF.

"THE GREATEST LIVING AMERICAN" Met By Race Men, Who Were Graciously Received. [From the Kansas City Sun.] A delegation of prominent colored men, upon an invitation extended by Ex-President Theodore Roosevelt, soldier, statesman, hunter and the greatest living figure in the world today, visited him at his stopping place while in this city last Monday at 3 p.m. at the palatial residence of Hon. I. R. Kirkwood, son-in-law of the late Colonel Wm. R. Nelson, founder and editor of the Kansas City Star, and were previously received by both Col. Roosevelt and his host, Mr. Kirkwood. After being ushered into the magnificent reception room of the Kirkwood residence, Mr Nelson C. Crews, as spokesman of the delegation, introduced the members of the party to the ex-President, and after an exchange of greetings briefly stated their pleasure in having this distinguished honor conferred upon them of being permitted to meet, the distinguished guest, to express their confidence in him and to thank him for his manly and courageous stand for the race in the recent controversy with Samuel Clompers of the American Federation of Labor at the recent clash in Carnegie Hall, in New York City. Mr. Crews said that when Abraham Lincoln uttered these splendid words in which he said, "Government of the people, for the people and by the people shall not perish from the earth," he gave utterance to a lofty and magnificent sentiment; but when you, Col. Roosevelt, gave utterance to that stirring sentiment, "All men up and no men down," you forever undeared yourself to every Negro beneath whatever flag he may live in the civilized world. Mr Crows then presented Dr. William Thomas, the scholarly and eloquent pastor of Allen Chapel, who briefly but cooquently stated the difficulties under which the race has labored, the struggles through which it was passing and the need of strong and powerful friends, and in conclusion, said: "Mr. Roosevelt, give us a text—a theme—a message of inspiration to carry to our people and we shall feel that our mission shall not be in vain." Col. Roosevelt seemed to be deeply affected by the eloquent plea of Dr. Thomas, and though he gave visible evidence of fatigue, having just returned from the memorable banquet extended him by the commercial bodies of the city, yet he entered with the Roosevelt vim and spirit into a brief discussion of the conditions surrounding the colored people, told how it was his intention, if he had been permitted to organize a brigade for service in France to have had one colored regiment with Colonel Young in command of that regiment and all the officers colored, and vehemently said: "I would have expected every man from that regiment to have measured up to the highest possible standing, because I know more would be expected of them than of other elements in my regiment; but, as I was not permitted to organize that brigade, I can only say to you: "Be brave, be not weary in well doing, be patient but progressive; trust in God and respect your fellows, always remembering that all things which are possible are not always expedient.

M.—Ex 14:15. With his usual eloquence Pastor Greggs briefly reviewed the marvelous history of the church, and paid especial attribute to the forty-seventh-century church. He drew the depths of his text and drew many practical lessons from the faith and wisdom of Moses, and from God's command to Israel, to go forward. The joy and enthusiasm with which the messages were received showed that the members are proud of their history and grateful to God for the abundance of blessings which He has poured out upon this church. Five were happily converted, nine accessions to membership were recorded. The music by the choir was especially effective and well rendered.
